AIR for tourism.
Commuters consider that the distance between cities in Mexico are not large enough to consider air traveling as an option.
GROUND TRANSPORTATION.
80% of people who commute at least once a week use CAR or BUS (being the only option available)
PASSENGER bus
60% of people who use ground transportation, uses second class passenger bus to commute for studies and work. This service is very popular among students and workers due to it lows cost, but also allows standing passengers over a 20% more of sitting passengers.
